Final Project - Proposal

1. I will be working on a project by the name of "The *Interesting* Life of a Balloon". This is the story of a lonely balloon by the name of Herb that finds a friend and becomes happy. He also changes color based on his mood. He rapidly changes color when surprised. The logline of this story is: An unusual being with human feelings goes through the happy feeling of finding a good friend.
2. The characters that will make an appearance are (not in order):

• Herb.
• Dwayne the Rock.

3. I will be using Adobe Flash (Action Script 3.0) to animate. The visuals will 100% mine. I will use a microphone to add audio into my file.
